Craig Burley Torres tattoo

Lost a bet apparently. Is it real? http://www.espnfc.com/video/espn-fc-tv/86/video/2255937

What was the bet?

 

[nightgoat]

Either that's fake or that's the worst tattooist they could find. When he pulls his sleeve up it looks like felt tip pen.

What was the bet?

Think he said Torres wouldn't score against Real.

Quite a severe punishment for a crappy bet. Not the smartest!

 

[danielneeds]

Nah, definitely fake.

If that's real, I'll get the same one done myself.

I've got the same area tattoo'ed on me, and I can tell you straight away that it would have bled and swollen noticeably on 'completion' and by now it'd be scabbed up like a right fucker for at least 3 or 4 weeks.

Just as well, as it looks like a kid's doodle

Proof if ever it was needed that Craig Burley falls into the category of the bell end variety.

Looks like you better get yourself booked in, looks pretty real to me!

My tat's didn't scab up, and were fine after 4/5 days (wet heal).

Lol it's felt tip - guaranteed.

Out of comparison, what did you have/where

Ha ha, I have no idea, looked like he was getting it done properly in the vid though!

Having a sleeve done at the moment, last one was forearm - outside and inside (rosary beads and cross).

I used the old nappy ointment and cling film wrap for 4/5 days, got a tattoo thread somewhere about it

But even then, you'd get red swelling around the area and you would have got 'Vimto blood' stains around your arm and under the wrap for the first few hours, right?

Cool. I think the difference there is that yours is made up of thin lines and gradients. Mine, and especially this joker's fake tattoo, is made up of thick black lines - they scab up loads.

The video never actually shows the ink being applied, you just see the tattoo gun held to his skin from obscure angles, so gotta agree with @225 about it being fake!

Doesn't have to scab, what did you put on it?

Can't remember now. I had it done the day we won the League Cup, as I was listening to it on the radio at the time, so must be 7 years now almost. Would have been a cling film wrap and savlon probably.

 

[Shanks]

Savlon is why it scabbed then, worst thing to put on a tattoo, trust me I had to have my first one re-done because I used savlon!

I use Bepantham, every few hours fresh cling film - not a scab in sight!

I've used Bepanthen since, but still have had some scabbing. It really depends on your skin type and the technique/design to be honest, but not even wolverine would heal as quick as Burley seems to, and it wouldn't heal never mind fade as quickly as that - Torres scored on the 15th, so he would have had it done on the 16th minimum - video was uploaded on the 21st, so we're talking maybe 5 days tops.

Burley looks like Merson and is obviously just as thick. Maybe they are long lost twins or at the very least their Mums shared the same milkman.
